Special discount for eco members: 15 % off registration using discount code ECO-N-15

With its wealth of renewable energy, the region is already experiencing significant growth in the deployment of mission critical facilities and offers new business, outsourcing, investment, hosting, colocation and cloud opportunities.

Digital infrastructure underpins our hyper connected world. The continuous growth in cloud demand and IoT technologies, which are mission-critical for the digital business, is set to dramatically transform data center architectures in 2017 and beyond.

This year’s conference content will explore the bleeding-edge of innovation from the prism of autonomous vehicles that stretch the notion of latency to the impact of AI and machine learning that's set to become mainstream, to topics of open compute, edge, energy efficiency and upgrading and retrofitting current infrastructure in support of hybrid IT environments.
